(Doctors recommend no swimming until roughly six weeks postpartum.)

Number one, comfort.

Comfort is key, always, but especially in those weeks and months after giving birth.

You have to be comfortable.

The cut

Second, the cut.

We gravitated toward lower cut tops, and high-waisted bottoms.

Breastfeeding-friendly

Lastly, ease of taking care of your little one.

The truth is, you only need one good swimsuit to wear during thatpostpartum period.

Somehow this feat of bathing suit engineering also manages to look good on everybody.

There are also sewn in breast cups, which can be very helpful for any moments of milk leakage.

Busty sizes also come with wider straps (thank you for this design element, Kindred Bravely!)

and the top looks super cute with a variety of the available mix and match bottoms.

Best ruching:

J.

It has a way of hiding the places you want to hide and accentuating the places you want accentuated.

Note the ruching (excellent), and the easy boob access (key).

And the price is right.

Other standout elements include the ruching and the tummy control and the adjustable straps.

The removable bra pads are also an excellent feature for that postpartum ever-changing bust shape.

Ruching on the sides (with drawstrings to ruche even more!)

is a flattering touch and with UPF 50+ this is a sun protection dream.

This top has no cups but the compression does the job better than most cups can.

alt

Its extremely secure and also buttery soft.

Adjustable straps make this an excellent choice for shifting sizes and easy feeding access.

We also appreciate this more billowy option, because sometimes we just dont want anything tight on whatsoever.
